(Εὐπάτωρ , Eupátōr , "Nobleborn"): Son and successor to Antiochus Epiphanes, ascended the throne as a mere boy (163-161 bc) under the guardianship of Lysias, who led an expedition to the relief of Jerusalem, which had been besieged by Judas Maccabeus (1 Macc 6:18-30; Ant , Xii , ix, 4), who was defeated (1 Macc 6:42).

Philip, the king's foster-brother (2 Macc 9:29), was defeated at Antioch, but soon afterward Lysias and Antiochus were themselves defeated by Demetrius Soter, son of Seleucus Philopator (1 Macc 7:4; 2 Macc 14:2; Ant , Xii , x, 1; Polyb. xxxi.19; Livy Epit . 46).
